MODERATORS
On lemmy, yes, every few months I have a quick scroll in my post history.
Just to be like “haha, I remember that conversation” or something.
Also, as I scroll through I’m like “hey, people liked this” because at the time you just say something and move on. But maybe later you can see people were into it.
This is definitely part of why I do it, call me conceited. I like looking back and seeing if my comment came across the way I wanted to, and votes can help determine that
It’s online, but it’s still a community. It’s cool to see something you wrote a few weeks ago went down nicely with people you interact with.
The same as having a conversation with the lady at our local post office can end with some laughs or something like that.
